Nisbet - Potential new contract

[CMurdoch]

Today as most games recently we barely managed to get another Hibs player within 20 metres of Nisbet.
That is no use to a player like him.
He has good feet but doesn't have pace so he isn't going to run away from anyone.
Suspect he phones Doidge everyday to find out when he will be back.
Badly needs the big guys qualities next to him.

At FT Nisbet never celebrated with our players and also never came over to applaud the fans in the East Stand? All the other players did. Nisbet just trotted off and down the tunnel. There's something definitely wrong here?

Most likely frustrated at himself. He's working hard but it's not happening.

There's indications some of the players aren't enjoying having the fans back in my view. Nisbet and Porto are a couple of examples. Porto went tonto at the east when there were groans towards him for not playing a certain pass.

I maybe misheard on the interview buy Jack Ross said we have a number of players not training at the moment, Martin, Kevin and then said something about Kyle Magennis?

You honestly think he’s working hard??

He barely ever sprints and his two efforts today were abysmal

He was slow to react to situations and really looked like couldn’t be arsed. His whole demeanour and body language is really concerning. We’ve no option bar keeping playing him hoping he comes good.

Missed that.

Porto’s performances have been decent though, I don’t think fans are affecting him.

He's nowhere near 'working hard' he needs dropped but we have nobody to replace him.

I’d have to agree to an extent. He isn’t occupying defenders nearly enough. Never mind not holding the ball up, he’s hardly even threatening to a lot of the time.

Needs to find some form asap.

I do …it’s not coming off for him..he just needs a goal …his role isn’t to run the channels …although he did that well a couple of times today …he’s quality - will shine soon

Almost certainly annoyed at that one he should have slotted or passed to Boyle.

He needs to just get on with it.

I think he is working hard. He doesn't need to chase down people and run like a headless chicken just to prove that. He's doing nearly everything he normally does but isn't getting service or the reward for getting into some of his positions. His efforts today were poor but I think he's snatching at them and not thinking clearly.

I agree he needs dropped to clear his head more than anything but as you say there is no one to replace him with. Makes it all the more criminal we didn't get another striker in on deadline day to try and alleviate the pressure on him.

I thought he worked hard today but not much worked out for him. Definitely poor decision making near the end but I think that is just because he is desperate to do well. He needs a goal as I feel he looks short on confidence.

He's working very hard yes. Battled hard today but always a tough task.

The Scott loan from Hull looks to have been a great decision too eh!

In reality these are all just the usual clichés used for all strikers when they don't score. Have heard them all before with Shaw, Maclaren, Doidge, Stokes, Murray, Kamberi, Vine, Kuqi, Heffernan etc etc.

The reality is they just had to improve their performances or they'd sooner find themselves elsewhere, with the exception of Doidge.

[Saint Hibee]

I thought Nisbet actually played okay today, apart from not squaring the ball at the end. He certainly looked like he was working hard to me.

I thought Gullan's career was over but yet there was getting a sub appearance in over Scott in an area of the park Scott plays in. Really starting to wonder what the point of that loan was because it doesn't tick any of our boxes in terms of what we needed in the type of player nor the standard of quality we were after.

We have Scott and Gullan. They may not the greatest players but they can’t be any worse than Nisbet

Disagree that it’s not his job to run the channels. Needs to do more of that type of thing. He’s not giving defenders enough to think about at the moment just wanting to drop off and get the ball to feet all the time. His last goal came from running in to the channel and turning defenders around.

At the moment, the implied threat that he maybe recalled by Hull in January looks like a good option.

Running the wide channel is not the role he’s being asked to do currently

[bigwheel]

The negativity on here is unbelievable ….Scott getting stick without playing one minute today …Nisbet getting hammered by some just because he is off form ..

I hope those continue to be the big issues on here …because it will mew. We are continuing to going out points and results …

Scott and Gullan will never score the number of goals that Nisbet has already even adding them together.

Not worse than Nisbet, get a grip man ffs.

Player of the season this year for me. That wasn't aimed as a dig at him

[Since452]

Just over a year ago Nisbet was playing for Dunfermline in the Championship. He's now being asked to lead the line for Hibs while his strike partner is out injured. Cut him some slack ffs. All strikers go through bad spells.
